FC Bayern have some positive news to report from training: Alphonso Davies has returned to the training pitch at Säbener Straße
The left-back has thus taken an important step towards his comeback. The Canadian had recently had to take a break due to health problems and was not available to Vincent Kompany in recent matches. Now the situation seems to be easing
According to BILD, Davies returned to the training pitch on Wednesday morning for the first time after several days of illness. Together with athletics coach Simon Martinello, the 23-year-old completed individual running and passing sessions at Säbener Straße
The personnel situation at left-back in particular has been tense of late, making the return of Davies, whose dynamism and attacking strength make him a key component of Munich’s game, all the more valuable. However, coach Kompany has stressed on several occasions recently that he does not want to take any risks with injured players. Accordingly, a cautious approach is also likely to be taken with Davies
Boey still out
The situation with Sacha Boey is less encouraging. The French right-back is still absent due to illness and was still unable to train with the team on Tuesday
The Munich newspaper tz had recently reported that Boey was suffering from a rare and protracted gastrointestinal illness. In response to a query from BILD, the club said that he had a very persistent gastrointestinal infection, but nothing completely out of the ordinary. Meanwhile, Davies is said to be suffering from influenza, which takes a while to fully recover from
Boey has recently been repeatedly linked with a possible winter departure from FC Bayern, and those responsible would probably not be averse to letting the 25-year-old go.
